This release of Code On Time introduces new productivity tools. Project Explorer is designed to simplify the development process. The future releases will include further enhancements to the Project Explorer including full drag and drop support.

Some of the promised functionality is not included in the current release due to compatibility issues. We are working on a follow-up that will go out later this week.

Make sure to refresh the cache of your browser to load the latest version of the client library after you re-generate you web application.
